By the way if you still don’t have it, it’s Nathan Azarcon on the cover this month!
UNO rocks out this month with our very special Music Issue, featuring one of the country’s biggest rock stars on the cover: Nathan Azarcon. (This is, by the way, only the second time in the magazine’s nine-year history that we’ve put a solo male on the cover; the very first one was Manny Pangilinan.) Inside,…

By the time you read this post, I’m still in the middle of the ocean, finishing our last day of diving Tubbataha Reef. When I get back, I fly, almost immediately to Boracay. I’m there with my partner-in-crime Andi9 so we’ll be streaming live soon! SMART is launching LTE technology and doing the entire demo…

Down there they can capture rare and vivid images we cannot simply find up here.

I can’t believe it. It’s finally done. If you’re from the south (like me), this flyer is a huge sigh of relief as the many months of traffic wore down on all of us who live further down from Magallanes. Slowly, but surely, it’s become a breeze to drive home. I remember in 1998 when…

Interesting. It’s Jericho Rosales‘ first international film. But more than that, it seems like a pretty solid story on the drama and intrigue behind the ‘I Love You’ virus epidemic that plagued the world’s Internet in May of 2000.

BlackBerry Torch 9800: You want one. No, really you do! Buy it. Buy it. Buy it.
EDIT: Here’s a post from my friend Eric on his BB6 experience. Wow. Talk about delayed. The BlackBerry Torch you see here was released in the middle of 2010. It’s only now I’m reviewing it. To be fair, I haven’t seen a lot of people using this phone as it arrived late in the Philippines.…
